We discuss the formation of Mondo 2000 and other far out topics with the legendary RU Sirius, a multifaceted thinker, writer, editor, and countercultural icon.

Throughout his career, Sirius has been a vocal advocate for the possibilities of technology to transform society and enhance human potential. His writing has appeared in numerous publications, including Wired, Rolling Stone, and Time, and he has authored several books on topics ranging from virtual reality to the future of humanity.

In the late 1980s, Sirius co-founded the influential cyberculture magazine Mondo 2000, which became a platform for fringe and alternative ideas, and a leading voice in the emerging techno-utopian movement. Through Mondo 2000, Sirius became an integral figure in the underground scene of Silicon Valley, pioneering the use of virtual reality and promoting the possibilities of the internet before it became mainstream.

Sirius helped shape and document the burgeoning cyberculture of the late 1980s and '90s and his work provided a nexus for the convergence of digital technology, rave culture, psychedelic exploration, and futuristic ideas, presenting a kaleidoscopic vision of a rapidly evolving world.
